Passing traffic refer to JR's Barbeque as a "hole-in-the-wall," but locals and people who drive out of their way to it call JR's their place for ribs. Owner Jeanie Jackson and son Bobby Johnson serve their native Memphis-style barbeque and are applauded for serving some of the tastiest ribs and barbeque in Los Angeles. Meats are slow-cooked over mesquite, white oak and pecan woods bringing a flavorful smoky flavor to them. The BBQ sauce is a family secret, and you just may want to whistle and clap your hands after tasting it.
